“What are the essential elements or skills in Leadership? One of the most important elements is two-way communications. Communicating a vision and readily accepting feedback is essential. Good leaders know their people’s strengths and weaknesses. They know themselves and they know their purpose. Leaders think strategically, promote innovativeness, lead with integrity, and they earn trust. The most essential work is creating more leaders. What are your most essential qualities and components of leadership?” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
